Default B16 swap in EG crooked...

I just installed a B16a in my EG, however to motor sits crooked. I'm using Integra B series motor mounts, are these the wrong mounts? The drivers side is a couple of mm off, while the passenger side is sits slightly lower than the right. What can I do to fix this? Any info. would help. Thanks

Was the EG an automatic? If so, the passenger side bracket (on the body) might be located higher than on a manual car. I had the same problem with my teg. You can get a new bracket from the dealership and have it welded on or use a longer high grade bolt and some washers to lower that side. Good Luck

Here are some pics:


It is a first gen. B16a Jap Spec OBD 0 with a hydro to cable conversion. The mounts are stock from the motor, but there is no way those are the correct mounts. Any info would be helpful. thanks

NO accident, the D15 in the car prior to the swap was straight. I'm thinking wrong mounts, but do not know which ones to use. A friend suggested using the old D series mount on the driver's side. Would that work?
